Portal


Portal is a small 3 hour long puzzle game that was introduced by the Orange Box, which also contained Half-Life 2, Episode 1 and 2, and Team Fortress 2.
You play as Chell, a person who wakes up in Apreture Science Laboritories to the voice of GLaDOS a robotic computer. After completing about 3 "test chambers" you find the "portal gun" a device that lets you shoot portals onto almost any surface. As you progress through the chambers it becomes quite clear that something is up.
It was really good and the gameplay mechanics worked really well. It had the best ending to a game that I have seen in long time and the song that played during the credits is now my favourite song.
9/10
